Commoditizing your compliment (https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2002/06/12/strategy-letter-v/)

Meta runs on UGC (User Generated Content), so making it easy and cheap to make great content is in their best interests. If they can reduce the cost of making a Billboard 100 quality song to $0, or make it so anyone with a 1.3MP webcam can use AI to get MKBHD level quality streams going, they:

- increase the amount of content being generated

- increase the quality of that content

- make the content cheaper to acquire/license (since there's dramatically more supply)
